Frank, did you have a good look at your clutch pedal. That pin that attaches it to the master will wear the hole eventually. If this is the case, it will explain you clutch pedal play AND the problem you are having with the clutch itself. Now, this isn't to say that you don't need a clutch job, but a clutch job may not fix your problem if the pedal is screwy. If It is, remove the pedal, replace it, or have a machine shop fill it and drill it. Shouldn't run you more than 25 bucks either way.
If this isn't the case, invest in a few vice grips. On clutch plate you'll see that there are three main "hinge" points that allow for the system to be attatched yet able to move. use the vice grips to depress those spots and you will eventually be able to get the spacer ring where you need it.
Good luck.
